Characteristics

Sugormin are silver-blue robotic humanoids, bulkier than a Gormin but slightly smaller than an Action Commander. Sugormin normally operate in teams of three. Their large arms are fitted with laser cannons which prove devastating as a giant as well as large claws for melee combat. Sugormin can also transform into jet fighters for aerial combat or to combine into a hovercraft for an Action Commander to ride on. Like the Gormin, when not fighting they take part in recreational activities on their ships such as Card Games which they use as an opportunity to bully and abuse their Gormin underlings. Ep. 10: Card Game

History

The Sugormin first appeared on Earth in the Great Legend War where they led hundreds of Gormin into battle against the past 34 Super Sentai teams. Despite possessing overwhelming numbers, the Sugorming were routed along with the other ground forces before AkaRanger gave the order for the Sentai teams to unleash all their power at once, obliterating the Invasion Fleet at the cost of scattering the Super Sentai powers across the universe. Ep. 1: The Space Pirates AppearThe Sugormin would return two years later along with a second invasion fleet under the command of Prince Warz Gill only to be foiled over and over by the Gokaigers who had found the lost super sentai powers and came to earth in search of the Greatest Treasure in the Universe.

As the Gokaigers continued in their hinderance of Zangyack's efforts to conquer the planet, fights with giant Sugormin trios became everyday events. Ep. 8: Little Spy Tactics When Deratsueigar grew, dozens of giant Sugormin rather than the usual three appear, though the Gokaigers managed to easily eradicate all of them with their new formation, Shinken GokaiOh. Ep. 12: The Guaranteed Showy Samurai Sugormin were also key part of a plot headed by Action Commander Regaeru who attempted to switch the minds of world leaders with those of Sugormin who would then use the authority of the world leaders to hand Earth over to Zangyack. As usual, this plan was foiled by the Gokaigers. Ep. 27: A More Than Usual Gokai Change

In the final battle on Earth, numerous Sugormin and Gormin stationed on the Gigant Horse were defeated by Gokai Red and Gokai Silver as they, having boarded after ramming into the flagship in the Free Joker, fought their way to Emperor Ackdos Gill. Countless Sugormin and Gormin were destroyed when Gokai Red turned the Gigant Horse's weapons against and annihilated the massive Zangyack Great Fleet that had been assembled from across the universe. The Gigant Horse was destroyed and Emperor Ackdos Gill died at the hands of the Gokaigers soon after, and so the Space Empire Zangyack would fragment into divided factions over the following month.
